Meet Our New Family Physicians: Dr. Ryan Weir and Dr. Autumn Weir

Minneola Healthcare is proud to welcome Dr. Ryan Weir and Dr. Autumn Weir to our team! Their addition marks an exciting step forward in our mission to provide compassionate, high-quality healthcare to the residents of Minneola and the surrounding communities.

Both Dr. Ryan and Dr. Autumn share a deep commitment to patient-centered care and bring extensive experience in family medicine. They each earned their Doctor of Medicine from the University of Kansas, and both completed their residencies at Smokey Hills Family Medicine Residency program, gaining hands-on experience in a wide variety of clinical settings.

Dr. Ryan Weir specializes in preventative care, geriatrics, and addiction medicine, focusing on helping patients maintain their health over a lifetime. His approach emphasizes proactive care, early intervention, and supporting patients and families through every stage of life. Dr. Ryan will begin seeing patients in April, and his expertise will be a valuable resource for our community, especially in meeting the unique healthcare needs of older adults and those facing chronic conditions.

Dr. Autumn Weir brings a strong focus on wound care, women’s health, and inpatient medicine, ensuring that patients receive comprehensive, individualized care whether in the clinic or during a hospital stay. Her dedication to treating the whole person, rather than just the symptoms, makes her an ideal fit for Minneola Healthcare’s patient-first philosophy. Dr. Autumn will begin seeing patients in August, and we are excited for the breadth of care she will provide to our community.

Together, Dr. Ryan and Dr. Autumn embody the values that Minneola Healthcare stands for: excellence, compassion, and community. Their addition strengthens our team and ensures that our patients will continue to receive the highest standard of care close to home.

We are excited for the future and the positive impact these two outstanding physicians will have on the health and well-being of our community. Please join us in welcoming Dr. Ryan and Dr. Autumn Weir to Minneola Healthcare!

🏇🤠 And they’re off… at Minneola Long Term Care! 🤠🏇

The thrill of the “track” came to our facility as residents saddled up for our much-anticipated horse races! From the cowboy hats and western wear to the cheers and laughter filling the room, the whole building knew race day had arrived.

This fun activity isn’t just exciting — it also promotes healthy movement as residents remain seated and use their feet to pull back their “reins” (lines of newspaper) to race toward the finish. A little friendly competition and a lot of smiles make it a favorite for everyone!

Congratulations to Betty Wilson, who took home the trophy and the title of Champion! 🏆👏

We’re already looking forward to the next race day at Minneola Long Term Care!

Healing Closer to Home: A New Chapter for Minneola Healthcare

Today, we didn’t just cut a ribbon; we opened a door to hope.

At Minneola Healthcare, our mission is to deliver personalized, patient-centered care in an atmosphere that promotes the healing process and enhances the quality of life for the communities we serve. Today, that mission took a monumental leap forward with the grand opening of our state-of-the-art 3-D Mammography Suite.

We are reminded daily that we are truly blessed with a team of associates who work tirelessly to improve the livelihoods of our patients. By launching this suite—along with in-house breast ultrasounds, stereotactic biopsies, and breast surgeries—we are ensuring that world-class cancer screenings stay right here at home. No more long distances; just the care you need, where you belong.

Our deepest gratitude goes to the Patterson Family Foundation. Your generous monetary donation has made the health of rural Kansans a priority, and we are honored to turn your support into life-saving action.

Because at the end of the day, we know that Early Detection is the BEST Protection.

Join us in celebrating this milestone for our community!
